Choosing the right perfume is a key part of expressing yourself as a woman. Scent is strongly linked to emotions – and the right perfume can make you feel irresistibly feminine.
But how do you find that perfect feminizing scent? I’m glad you asked!
In this blog post, written specifically for crossdressers and transgender women, I’ll guide you through various perfume scents and the impressions they create.
By the end, you’ll be able to confidently pick a perfume that matches your unique style and enhances your femininity.
Floral Perfumes
Floral perfumes are created using the scent of a single flower, such as lavender, rose, gardenia, or geranium, or a combination of multiple flowers.
These fragrances are particularly suitable for crossdressers and transgender women since they are the most feminine of fragrances. Wear a floral perfume when you want to express your soft, romantic side.
Examples of floral perfumes include:
- Daisy by Marc Jacobs
- Estée Lauder White Linen
- Dior J’Adore
- Stella by Stella McCartney
- Kenzo Flower by Kenzo
- L‘Air du Temps by Nina Ricci
Fruity Perfumes
Fruity perfumes contain citrus scents, such as lemon, grapefruit, strawberry, peach, kiwi, etc.
With their fresh and youthful character, fruity perfumes are an excellent choice when you desire to feel confident and energetic.
Examples of fruity perfumes include:
- L.A.M.B. by Gwen Stefani
- Cartier Eau de Cartier
- Sun Flowers by Elizabeth Arden
- Beautiful Sheer by Estée Lauder
- DKNY by Donna Karan
- Emporio White by Giorgio Armani
Fresh Perfumes
Fresh perfumes, also known as green scents, are light and airy, evoking notes of grass, green leaves, and the ocean.
Energetic and rejuvenating, fresh perfumes are perfect for when you’re “en femme” as they elevate your mood and create a comforting atmosphere.
Examples of fresh perfumes include:
- J.Lo Glow by Jennifer Lopez
- Fifth Avenue by Elizabeth Arden
- Diorissimo, Dune by Christian Dior
- Bond No. 9
- Safari by Ralph Lauren
Oriental Perfumes
Oriental perfumes emanate a rich and dramatic aura, blending scents of spices, musk, vanilla, and intense flowers.
These perfumes exude a sexy and sophisticated allure. Just remember to opt for a lighter fragrance, as oriental perfumes can lean towards the masculine side.
Examples of oriental perfumes include:
- Dior Addict
- Lancome Attraction
- Opium by Yves Saint Laurent
- Samsara by Guerlain
- Lalique Perfume by Lalique
- Sun Moon & Stars by Karl Lagerfeld
Woody Perfumes
Woody perfumes are heavy and dramatic and incorporate scents like sandalwood, patchouli, and cedar.
While woody perfumes are sensual and exotic, they lean more towards the masculine spectrum of fragrances. Hence, you may want to avoid this particular type.
Examples of woody perfumes include:
- Passion by Elizabeth Taylor
- Escada by Escada
- Lovely by Sarah Jessica Parker
- Cashmere Mist by Donna Karan
- Habanita by Molinard
- Givenchy Organza

Estes Lauder Modern Muse, Le Rouge Gloss. The scent is so matched with me. Flowery with a hint of seduction. I love ❤️ it.
I love that perfume I get alot of compliments on it
I absolutely love eternity and little red dress
Avon’s Imari is my all time favorite and my second favorite is Sensuous by Este Lauder.
Flowerbomb by Viktor and Rolf will Always be my favorite. It is heavenly!
I am a Estee Lauder “Beautiful” girl all the way.
I’ve been wearing White Diamonds by Eliz. Taylor, but now just weekends. I’m not sure which of the categories it falls into, but seems it was a little strong. Used to wear it to work, but we work in fairly close cubicles and someone complained. E.T also used to sell White Diamonds bath soap and that had the same aroma and less strong.
Based on the comments so far, I’ll try her Passion perfume.
L’Air du Temps and Samsara are my 2 signature scents. ;l’air du Temps is very wonderful for use during the day and what I wear most of the time. Samsara by Guerlain is what I where when I go out in the evening and suits my exotic side when I really make a point to dress my prettiest. I have a tendency to look exotic then and Samsara matches my looks.
Recently I was dating a man who, after a few dates, told me he didn’t like scents and asked me to stop. After a long time of deliberation, I told him I couldn’t do it since scents are important to me. I clean my clothes with scents, wash my hair with it, spray my sheets with it, etc.. etc… He was a wonderful person who treated me with respect. In fact, it was respectful for him to tell me so early in a developing relationship so neither of us would be hurt.
My favorite scent is that of Plumeria oil.
It just works for me.
